Let's not fool ourselves here, if you thought that this coaching change was going to be an easy change with no setbacks then you were only fooling yourself.
You do not completely change both your offensive AND defensive schemes and just walk all over your opponents with no problems. I know we've all heard coach Kelley say that this isn't a 5 year plan but a 5 min plan but let's seriously give the guy a break.

If you thought that we were going to change an entire coaching staff and run over everyone in our first year based on coach kelley's past achievements than you're crazy.

It's going to be ok, we all make predictions before the season starts. I've seen everything from 6-6 all the way to 11-1. The problem is when we lose a game or two everyone starts FREAKING OUT! We are in the toughest part of our schedule right now and we have to remember that it doesn't happen overnight.

MARK MY WORDS!
We will still finish with a better record than we have had the last 2 years and BK is in his FIRST year.
Despite the hype surrounding coach Kelley, it's only you're own fault if you thought we weren't going to drop a few games.

Were not where we want to be but we definitely aren't where we were!

USCete Carroll - 6-6
Oklahoma:Bob Stoops - 7-5
Alabama:Nick Saban - 7-6
ND:Lou Holtz - 5-6

These are their first year records and all of them except for Holtz had double digit wins the following year and all of them won a National Championship within three years. We all need to chill out and realize that this is a long season and the best way to judge this team is not how it starts, but how it ends.

sorry, just not very impressed with kelly and staff...recruiting has been better than i thought but thats about it...we do have a much better running game but **** we need to use it...keeping this thin d off the field more would help...we have beat one bottom of the heap big 10 team and lost to two mediocre others (although both were close)...gonna take stanford? bc? pitt? doubt it...looks like another **** season is in full swing...im tired of being mr optomistic, this ****ing glass is half empty im afraid...lets see how this team responds now that they know where they stand...im already sick of coaches grinning after getting their asses handed to them (think saban would be smilling?)...im already sick of delay of game penalties...i dont give a flying **** what kind of shape their lockers of in, but it would be nice to see us be able to ****ing get plays off in time and that is the direct result of a coaching staff...sorry, dont mean to spread **** all over our toast but this (irrelevance) is starting to **** me off royaly...i couldnt post or read anything last week after that michigan debacle and now ****ing michigan state fartins are shoving it down our throats...im about to puke...hope someone out there can counter my post with some reason why im wrong and the season isnt in the toilet already...just not ****ing impressed at all

Not here to try and convince you otherwise, just hoping people look at the big picture. I would share your exact sentiments if this was CW's 6th year instead of BK's 1st.

We live in a college football world where we demand results immediately, suffice it to say that is not reality. I know how this just looks like the same old ND over and over again but it's not. We as devout Irish fans owe it to coach Kelley to implement his system with his players. As good as our players our, they are not his and he's doing the best with them that he can at this point. I will not jump ship after 1 win and 2 very close losses.

Yep with a first time starting qb, an inexpirience o-line, think defensive backfield and lack of playmakers on the d-line. Yup awesome let's jump to conclusion :awesomewo

If you want instant gratification then get some lotion and a porno mag. It's 3 games, not 3 years!

It's all good bro, believe me my *** is burning right now(ok that sounded kind of gay) I hate the state of Michigan with a passion. I guess I've just been through this a few times and although I was hoping for a different outcome I'm not surprised to see things unfold this way. It will all work out in the end, I know it.

What did Journey tell us!?
